    Nepotism is just what Hungary needed to restore trust in politicians and institutions

  2. Everyday he looks more and more like someone trying to get revnge

    And suddenly we remember that Magyars party is neoliberal as all hell. Guess the rose tinted glasses are coming off now.

    saying its about merit while appointing your own relative was always going to look bad

    Honestly? I give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. Magyar hasn’t given us reason to doubt him with his appointments so far, and in the current system it can be difficult to say who to trust, particularly when those who have experience (and should thus be more competent picks) also tend to have the most ties to the former regime. Even if it’s based on personal rapport, I think he is picking someone he believes is reliable for the job.

    If it becomes a pattern I will own up to this as a mistaken view, but for now I think it’s fair to wait and see.

    As long as he doesn’t paralyze the EU it’s still progress compared to Orban. Tiny, potentially very tiny but still progress.

    Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Most people disliked Orban so much that they were willing to paint anyone as a savior, regardless of their history.

  8. Its a weird decision indeed. Im not trying to defend it, but the guy joined and worked with Tisza for more than 2 years by now, while he married Magyar’s sister like 6 months ago.

    Wasn’t that guy a founding member of the winning party? One of the top men in leadership in the campaign? He has the qualifications. What exactly is the issue? It would have been clear from the start that this guy is going to get a ministry position. I mean, there are probably very few people who fit who can be trusted and have the correct background and willingness to fight against corruption. He has done his part during the campaign so I guess we can give him the benefit of the doubt.

    Not great, not terrible?

    I guess after Orban “dramatically less nepotism” is still ok, even if “no nepotism” would be better…

    I would have reservations no matter how good he could be.

    This thread is so fucking funny. I don’t really support this but Magyar hasn’t even been properly in power yet and people are from this one thing already claim that he’s the same as Orban.

    People truly have no idea how insanely difficult it is to reverse systemic corruption, bad apples spoil the barrel, and if this is his best chance at getting honest people in power, he has to run the risk of nepotism.

    Do I enjoy randomly appointing people to judicial positions? I’ll let you be the judge of that.

    They do this in Western Europe a lot too lol, only difference is that, over there, they are a massive hyporcrite about it.

    JFK appointed RFk who was an honorable man and even better on civil rights ,Mafia and corruption. It was under RFK that mafia members had a 90% conviction rate .

    As long as it’s someone qualified and it’s not Trump hiring Jared Kushner for your Covid response strategy , then I don’t see a problem.

  17. **Jesus, did you guys cry this much when it happened in Italy?**
    **The difference is that the guy Magyar appointed has the PERFECT cv.**
    **Lollobrigida in Italy did not.**
    **So just be quiet.**
    **Magyars entire family tree is made up of lawyers and judges. There is a high probability that none of the qualified professionals were ‘outsiders.’ Furthermore, he was a founder of the Tisza Party and wasn’t even married to his sister six months ago.**

  18. Well… having a trusted person in the position of justice minister does make sense if you’re looking to root out deepseated corruption.

    I wouldn’t condemn this immediately, it’s a “wait and see” kind of decision I’d say.

    Magyar hasn’t yet deserved the same mistrust as Orban has.
